Removable mesh pack - enables greater cartridge economy since only the filtering part of the cartridge needs to be replaced.

Filter system - Southwest's filtration systems are simplex or duplex, inclusive of the filter housing, heating element, filter elements, valves and auxiliary equipment.

Candles and baskets - these metallic filter elements offer the great advantage of being able to be cleaned and re-used.

Filter discs - may favourably replace a set of cartridges for applications where fine filtration is linked to high operating pressures.

Southwest filter cartridges are available in many different configurations, such as conical and cylindrical (above).


Our wedge wire products are primarily designed for liquid / solid and solid / gas separation for the water, chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, mineral processing, food and general process industries.

Carbis Con-slot wedge wire screens are specifically used where process requirements call for a safe and economic solution of solid / liquid and solid / gas separation.

For some filtration applications, the use of conventional disposable cartridges may simply not be environmentally acceptable, therefore re-cleanable metallic filter elements and filter candles offer a cost effective solution.

Liquid-phase carbon vessel, used in the petrochemicals industry for the removal of oil and hydrocarbons.

Carbis Poly Pleat (PP) cartridges are designed to give all the characteristics common to a quality depth filter, by providing high dirt holding capacity and the capability to remove a wide range of particle sizes up to the particle retention rating.
